FinTech North announce renewal of partnership with DTM Legal to champion Liverpool FinTech ecosystem growth
We’re delighted to announce the renewal of our partnership with North West–based legal experts DTM Legal, long-standing supporters of FinTech North and active champions of the region’s growing fintech ecosystem.
With a strong presence in North West, and offices in Cheshire and Liverpool, DTM Legal is a highly respected commercial law firm advising businesses across a wide range of sectors.
Their expertise spans corporate law, commercial contracts, regulatory compliance and governance, with growing specialism supporting innovation-led sectors including fintech, digital technology and financial services. The firm also plays an important role within the regional business community, including as champions of the Liverpool City Region FinTech Growth Group, helping to support economic development and collaboration across the city region.
Over the years, DTM Legal has been a consistent advocate for fintech innovation across Liverpool and the wider North West, contributing thought leadership and practical legal insight on some of the sector’s most pressing topics. From risk and regulation to gamification, AI, compliance, financial education and financial inclusion, their perspectives have helped shape important conversations around responsible innovation and sustainable sector growth.
They have also been a valued contributor to our flagship Liverpool Conference over the years, supporting the event as speakers and as lanyard sponsors. We’re particularly pleased to welcome DTM Legal this year as Brand Sponsors of our flagship Liverpool conference, further strengthening a partnership that has grown alongside the region’s fintech ecosystem.
We’ve already kicked off the year with strong momentum, beginning with our Navigating Risk: Resilience and the Year Ahead event hosted in partnership with DTM Legal. Building on that discussion, we’re excited to welcome the team back to the stage at this year’s Liverpool conference, where they will share their expert insights as part of the panel ‘The Future of Risk: AI’s Role in FinTech, Compliance, and Innovation.’ As the sector continues to evolve rapidly, conversations around AI, regulation and risk management are more important than ever.
As part of our partnership this year, DTM Legal will support the Liverpool conference as Brand Sponsors and will collaborate with us on an additional co-curated event, bringing together industry leaders to explore key developments shaping fintech and financial services.
Joe Roche, General Manager, FinTech North:
‘We’re thrilled to be continuing our partnership with DTM Legal. Their team brings deep expertise and a genuine commitment to supporting the growth of fintech across Liverpool and the wider North West. We’re looking forward to working together again this year to create valuable discussions, connect the ecosystem and help drive innovation across the region.’
Kate Roberts, Partner & Head of Liverpool, DTM Legal
‘We are delighted to be partnering with FinTech North again in 2026. We are excited to be a brand sponsor for the Liverpool Conference continuing our relationship to develop the FinTech regional network and build it even stronger. We have worked closely together with FinTech North over the past few years and have aligned values of supporting Innovation and the Tech sector in the North West and beyond. The Conference on the 19th March will no doubt raise interesting discussions on emerging trends, risk and regulation and much more.
